Assuming that I might not make it that far down the path you've laid out, should I be getting the 251 set pieces or the 264 non-set items that are available from the generic all-gear Dalaran vendor? I dunno if the set bonuses on 251 gear are enough to make up the difference in iLevel.

I guess I'm also kind debating the value of buying a couple cheaper pieces of 264 gear (sigil, cape, belt, trinket) versus just buying one piece of 264 gear or a 251 set piece. Will the heavy stat contribution of the T10 chest outweigh what I'd get from some combination of cheaper pieces?

Well yeah, heroics are completely trivial. Raid wise though you have to watch your ass. Of course raiders should have more common sense, but I was just pointing out that it's much easier to pull off of a War/Druid than a DK/Pally as far as AoE goes. You need to give them a bit more time to build up hate, and if shit doesn't die fast, then you'll be pulling hate if you're not careful after a few more hits.
Yeah, but a lot of these people would rather just log over and do the daily on another character while the pug machine debuff ticks down after they leave a group that might take a little longer. I know I'm guilty of this after a long night, even though I've coached many a new tank through heroics on my healer, or made up for newbie DPS with Smite spam. Again, I'm not necessarily trying to defend this practice - just trying to get across one of its main causes.Dunlop said:

Hm, that doesn't make sense. The random disconnects can be explained, depending on what you use to wallwalk. GMs shouldn't randomly kill you and you also shouldn't get muted. If anything, you should receive a warning, a short ban, the length increasing up until a permaban if you keep breaking the rules. Thing is, if you're doing this all legit (Levitate), they shouldn't find out unless you flaunt the fact that you're doing these things (e.g. saying that you're in places you're not meant to be in chat channels and someone reports you). Going to Hyjal and getting No Man's Land can also send messages to GMs apparently, so if you've done that they could be looking for you. Either way, you shouldn't have anything to worry about until you get a formal warning.Rapstah said:Blizzard's watching my exploration character... Yesterday I got random disconnects while trying to wallwalk Stormwind and I just now got killed by nothing and muted for ten minutes while wallwalking Deadmines.If they work on a three strikes policy, I'm screwed.
Two friends and I got on flying mounts behind the AQ instance portal last week. It was a lot of fun.Rapstah said:Blizzard's watching my exploration character...

Can you still get to Hyjal? How do you go about it?Orbitcube said:
Sindragosas voiceovers are really starting to grate on me. Its absolutely horrible, they have never had VA as bad as that fight. Youtube it if your not there yet and listen to that shit.
And she doesnt just mouth off at the start of the fight and then stays quiet through the rest of the fight, she constantly is fucking talking throughout the whole fight. I hate it.
The area back there is set to flyable isnt it? Thats what I have always assumed when people said that.

No, no it freaking doesnt fit. Like the other poster says, even if the scripting fit, the fact that the VA voice cracks and sounds like shit is just unforgivable. Especially on the betraaaaaayyyysss youuuuu! part. Its atrocious. I would much rather hear "THE SOONER YOU ACCEPT YOUR CONDITION AS A DEFECT" than Sindragosa. Its so terrible.

Random: my GF was watching Private Practice yesterday and Emily Rose (Elena's VA) was on as a guest star; she sounds nothing like Elena when she's not trying to. :lolJ-Rzez said:I still love the "romulo and julianne" and "shade of aran" vw from Kara, for the laughs.

You can get into Hyjal with Levitate and I believe one way involving a multi-passenger mount, but you'll get a debuff called No Man's Land as soon as you zone in and will be ported out once the duration finishes. There is one way I remember reading that involved somehow tricking the game to think you're somewhere, but your body is in Darnassus and then there's a way to get up there, I'll try and find the video but it might not work anymore, so only try it if you have A LOT of time on your hand, it takes a while.thatbox said:
EDIT: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKxJHkabB4w&feature=player_embedded
Can't find the one I mentioned, but turns out the mount one doesn't give you No Man's Land, so that might be one way to do it.
I remember wallwalking into Hyjal but this was before WotLK came out, and they fixed it. It's too bad because Hyjal is a really cool zone, but then again we get to go there in cataclysm.
I used to ghostwalk to zones (ghostwalk as in just go as a ghost) that were off limits in WoW beta a lot, though. For awhile blizzard's method of deterring people was simply giving all critters in the zone death touch, but then later they created a unique inferno model you could see from far away when they were having to put guardians of blizzard around off-limits zones. But you could turn off the ghost effects for the most part, so you could go as a ghost and see the (empty anyway aside from critters) zones which was cool.

You Levitate-wallwalk over from Tanaris, and you can get back behind AQ in an "Unknown" zone. You can tell when you're there because you aren't in a LocalDefense channel. You can't cast your flying mount here, but if you get summoned in on one (one of my buddies is a warlock and the other is a mage) you stay on it until you hit a LocalDefense channel and you can fly around exploring. There's some pretty crazy stuff back there.LAUGHTREY said:

Has a date for Cataclysm been announced yet or is it still TBA? I'm buying a new laptop soon and would like to start playin' again but I'd rather wait til the new races are out.

It's not coming out any time soon, if that's what you're asking.

Nah, it does. For a frost-magic-wielding BONE DRAGON it really does. I mean, it sounds like her shrill, cracking voice could shatter ice. Annoying? Yes. Fitting? Absolutely. Though she does talk an awful lot.
Want to hear some bad/weird VA, go listen to the Ruby Sanctum clips. Xerestrasza sounds like a goddam tranny.

I would love a mount with the Halion model. It kind of looks like Neltharaku, who looks awesome.
vitaminwateryum said:
Nope, and in all actuality, it won't come out anytime soon. They'll probably push out SC2 much faster, and then Cata would be Sept/Oct/Nov i'm guessing. But personally I think they need to get it out in the summer. I don't think a mini-patch is going to hold over people with a tie-in raid, and the "skills revamp" patch won't hold over too long neither. The zone buff to ICC is going to trivialize it so much, pugs will be able to clear it with ease soon enough.

I'm on disco ball duty as well and I just look for them like crazy. Though there's a second hunter and a boomkin who look after them too in case.
I really hate the sound in WoW =|
Also, Sindragosa phase 3 is breaking my guilds balls. We've been working on it for like 3 weeks now with no progress in phase 3. Two frost beacons and we fall over dead.

Doesn't DBM and BigWigs have their own noises for events? Because I have that and I just press Ctrl-S and it mutes game sound but not the add-on sounds.FLEABttn said:

I have BigWigs set for visual cues for most things. That not being one of them. Maybe there's an option for it but princes isn't is a fight we have difficulty on.
Also, if anyone knows the answer, when LoSing in phase 3 Sindragosa, what exactly are we LoSing against? Her head? Her entire body? What exactly?
Oh and for those Deathknights looking to DW when 3.3.3 drops this is the spec you will want to use.

I'm very skeptical that 3 points in Killing Machine is a DPS gain over 6% Frost damage.Xabora said:

I'm getting really tired of getting instances starting with "Halls of" for my daily. Halls of Lightning and Halls of Stone are fucking boring, and Halls of Reflection sucks because PUG tanks can't do anything right. I gained Aggro in HoR today, doing single target DPS on the focus target against a fucking paladin. Give me a fucking break. Paladin is the easiest tank class in the universe.
